Oh the EU no longer counting pleases me just fine in this instance since it removes that -Yoink- Reven book out of existence.

Agreed on that.

At least it gives me some hope Revan and HK weren’t actually killed. Hopefully their existance gets taken out of the retcon.

But doesn’t this mean that the likes of Delta Squad (Republic Commandos) are non-canon now? They were some of my favourite characters. I know some things in the EU were…questionable, but not all was bad.

WTF! 343!

Why break from the usually Worldwide release date ?

Why does Europe have to way until the 14th ?

Friday being a traditonal release date is complete crap because games release every day here ! Games aren’t a cultural event here like in the US so why bother ?

10 year + 3 days Anniversary Release, WOW…

As annoying and silly as it is, it’s only 3 days, as long as you avoid the spoilers for Nightfall we should be alright.

Xbox, on!

Xbox, ON!

XBOX ON!

XBBBOOXXXX ONNN!!

XBOX ON, XBOX ON!

xbox on… turns on

Damn you Bill Gates and your devious ways.

As long as we avoid the Internet for 3 days, I don’t want to see the Campaign before I play it myself

Not the entire internet, I will probably end up stuck on OT while listening to music.

Mmmmm, Good idea!

Can somebody clarify this for me, has the UK release date for MCC been delayed ?

“Dely” suggests that it wasn’t planned, the UK (Europe)release date is 3 days later than the American one, which means it comes out on 14th November instead.

I was just curious, to be quite honest I just can’t get into the hype for the MCC, somebody help me out with getting into some sort of excitement for it?

> snip

I just plan to switch my privacy settings around so that nobody can see I’m online, turn off notifications so I don’t get informed about messages for 3 days and just play regular games while I try not to chew my arm off.

November 11th - the day to go dark.

It’s a delicious Halo feast…with all the trimmings.

Honestly all I’d be playing on the collection will be Halo 2.

Unless Halo: CE’s multiplayer is included? I haven’t been keeping up to news on the collection.

CE multiplayer is included (along with 2, 3 and 4 multiplayer).

HYPE LEVELS ARE BACK!

I Never thought they’d actually include the CE multiplayer spectrum!

Right you maggots, I challenge you all to a Warthog sticky battle upon release of the game.

I really don’t understand why they thought it was a remotely good idea to use seperate release dates.

Who the -Yoinking!- hell cares if Europe’s traditional release day is Friday?

Why the hell does that justify alienating chunk of the player-base?

Even if it’s just three days, the damage is already done.

While I’m sitting over here in US like a spoiled brat who gets his releases on time, I’m seriously questioning why they’d shy away from the anniversary date. I mean, that’s what it’s supposed to be, right? An anniversary?
C’mon, 343, Pokemon was able to do it, and their games normally come out 5 months before the English versions!

And that is why I’m planning on saving a hundred buckaroos (and my voice), even if it means I means I have to push a button.

The Kinect, even for the 360, has always been faulty in my eyes.

> snip

Kinect 2.0 is actually really good the problem is a lot of people are scared of new.

They should have also never released the 360 version, with out it there would be no bad rep for the thing.

264 is mine!
